- TOP500 Supercomputer Sites
Statistics on high-performance computers are of major interest to manufacturers, users, and potential users. These people wish to know not only the number of systems installed, but also the location of the various supercomputers within the high-performance computing community and the applications for which a computer system is being used. Such statistics can facilitate the establishment of collaborations, the exchange of data and software, and provide a better understanding of the high-performance computer market. The TOP500 table shows the 500 most powerful commercially available computer systems known to us.
- WSEAS: The World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society
WSEAS pronounced "W" - seas, is a world, scientific-engineering, academic, non-profit organization that promotes the development and the unified consideration of new mathematical methods and computational techniques as well as their applications in science and engineering. Also, WSEAS supports, in general, the research and the diffusion of the scientific and engineering knowledge, especially in the areas of mathematics, computer science and electrical engineering as well as their interaction to other sciences (physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, engineering, earth sciences, space sciences etc.)
- zapmeta
ZapMeta is a meta-search engine, a search tool that provide users the ability of simultaneously search multiple search engines under one interface. Meta-search engines benefit users by saving them time and effort from having to individually visit multiple search engines in order to find the desired result. Along with web search, ZapMeta currently offer a directory based on data from The Open Directory Project and Product Search powered by Pricegrabber.
- Web based calculus applications
Nine interactive models help students to experiment with concepts in calculus. Java applets are used as simulations for the user to test mathematical analysis of waves, parachute drops, radar, diving from a tower, ship movements, deck areas, aircraft wing volume, torque and the slope of a hill. With each exercise the user's input produces a graph or diagram. A review of the mathematics related to the simulation is provided and students are encouraged to provide feedback on the effectiveness of the models in helping them to learn.
